James Sime's Mobile Twitter Feed - click here for more Twitter Feed Loading...  This one was a really tough choice. Both of the Irredeemable covers this Paul Azaceta cover and this one by Dan Panosian are absolutely stellar. And I didn't think I was *ever* going to say this, but these amazing Fables covers by Joao Ruas make me not miss James Jean so much! But even in the face of some stiff competition.... mmmmm Darwyn. We love you the most. The Last Resort TPB cover by Darwyn Cooke darwyncooke.blogspot.com Labels: Dan Panosian, Darwyn Cooke, James Jean, Joao Ruas, Paul Azaceta
